Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
- "I want to thank you for the professional and incredibly diligent work you have provided me with my lymphedema. To the novice and the uninformed patient (like I was), this terrible affliction can be a life-changer in some very negative ways. It is so nice to know that real experts like you exist in our world and within our medical community. I am deeply humbled and eternally grateful for your efforts. As your new friend and, hopefully, your "forever chef," I wanted to make you something sweet and special to remember me by. I present to you my banana, cinnamon, and chocolate homemade bread. It is one of my culinary specialties, and I hope it will entice the sweet tooth in your mouth and put a big smile on your face. I look forward to a very long and "healthy" relationship with all of you. May God Bless each one of you! Please continue with your excellent and much-appreciated work!" With my deep gratitude & sincere thanks, Chef Cardie Mortimer
- "Ana's diagnosis and treatment plan were presented clearly and professionally. She allowed me to ask questions and comment about my Lymphedema condition and rendered a thorough and very successful treatment program. In contrast, my previous experiences at another LARGER/HOSPITAL FACILITY DID NOT do this. Also, she directed my follow-up/maintenance at home. I am "THRILLED" at my success in achieving control over a very debilitating condition!" Ms. Jean McSharry
- As a professional dancer, teacher, and yoga instructor, I thank Oscar for his knowledge, dedication to my recovery, compassion and encouragement, humanism, and expertise. I could not have made an ultimately successful recovery without him.
Lois Englund - "Integrity, respect, and innovation are the basic characteristics with which Oscar and Ana Pozzoli operate. Caring for injured patients is a passion for OmniTherapy Center. Rehabilitation becomes a holistic process where one feels treated with compassion and respect."
Langirene Aguilh - Recently, I was diagnosed with a devastating illness. I felt so vulnerable and lonely. However, my experience with Ana and the OmniTherapy Centers' staff has been such an incredible experience. Ana embodies an Angel fostering the value of love, compassion, and support above and beyond, rendering health services needed to maintain quality of life. Thank you for listening, for your kind words of encouragement, and for your strong faith. I believe that one day, suffering will end, the sound will be rewarded, the pain will be forgotten, the Light will scatter the darkness, and our spirits will go on. Thank you. Eleanor Cupe

Services Provided
Physical Therapy
In light of the shift over the past five to seven years towards physicians joining large medical groups, Omnitherapy Center has seen a notable decrease in physical therapy referrals. Our current focus is on providing specialized services for Lymphatic Disorders and offering education to healthcare professionals. Despite these changes, our dedication remains steadfast as we realign our services to more effectively support our community.
Lymphedema Services
Lymphedema, or lymph-related edema, is a condition that causes swelling in one or more extremities due to an obstruction in the flow of the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system comprises specialized vessels, called lymph vessels, that gather excess lymph fluid containing proteins, lipids, and waste products from the tissues. The fluid then travels to the lymph nodes, which filter waste products and contain infection-fighting cells called lymphocytes. Finally, the excess fluid in the lymph vessels is returned to the bloodstream. However, when the lymph vessels are blocked or cannot carry lymph fluid away from the tissues, localized swelling, known as Lymphedema, occurs. At Omnitherapy Center, we provide Comprehensive Decongestive Therapy, also known as Complete Decongestive Therapy. This is the original and most effective way to treat Lymphedema, which has been practiced in Europe for over eighty years. Unlike other treatments, we do not rely on placing you on a pump for an hour and calling it Lymphedema Treatment. We are confident in our approach and believe our therapy will provide you with the best results possible.
Lipedema, Lipo-Lymphedema Services
Lipedema is characterized by an irregular fat accumulation beneath the skin, typically in the lower limbs. Although it may initially be perceived as a cosmetic issue, it can eventually lead to pain and other complications. Correctly diagnosing lipedema is crucial since it is often misidentified as obesity or lymphedema despite not being a part of the routine medical school curriculum. As the disease progresses, the symptoms of lipedema may change, with advanced stages leading to excessive fat accumulation and lymphatic system insufficiency, resulting in "lipo-lymphedema." Furthermore, Ana Pozzoli performs specialized Bioimpedance tests with the InBody scanner.
